president of the association purpose of business curriculum achieved by facilities of new school by dean clarence s marsh the faculty of the school of busi ness administration is grateful to the council of the university of buffalo for the excellent and adequate facili ties provided for business training in crosby hall spacious class â– rooms attractive seminars and comfortable offices com bine to give students anil faculty unusual advantages the purpose of the school of business is explained in the following statement pre pared by a committee "<â– the course leading to the degree bachelor of science in business administration is designed to train stu dents for successful per formance not only in busi ness but also as effective and understanding members of our modern industrial so ciety while the scho o l recognizes of course a pri mary vocational or profes sional interest among its undergraduates it does not believe that satisfying ac-h complishments in business should be obtained at the sacrifice of well rounded development it is for this reason that the stu dent is provided with gen erous access to the oppor tunities for the study of tin wide range of liberal sub jects offered by the faculty Â»^Â»^Â»^Â»^Â»â„¢ of the college of arts and sciences the more specialized professional training within the school of business aims particularly to provide the student with an intelligent compre hension of the characteristics and functioning of the modern economic order especially as these are made manifest m the world of business and with a sound technique for the recog nition and solution of the problems arising m that world modern busi ness is a structure of gigantic propor tions with the extension of division of labor the perfection of methods of communication and transportation and the growth of every sort of large scale enterprise the individual par m affairs no matter how apparently great or modest his function has progressively assumed a po sition of profound interde pendence his own behavior is affected by the acts of numerous other persons and his decisions m turn influence many others to perform his duties wisely and successfully he must consequently understand his place m a vast and com plicated organization an ticipate the more remote consequences of what he contemplates doing and possess the ability to weigh opposing considerations and to arrive at definite and rational decisions to develop these abilities the school of business ad ministration aims to provide students with a general ac quaintance with such basic business functions as finance production market ing management account ing etc a thorough train ing m economic principles and m statistical and other methods of scientifically as sembling interpreting and expressing business facts and to cul tivate m students so far as possible those qualities which will later enable dean clarence s marsh business college development most rapid of u b projects with the opening of the evening session m 1923-24 and the growing demand m the business world for college trained em ployees it was first recommended that instructors m business subjects should be recognized as the faculty of business admin istration this nucleus of our present college of business ad ministration continued to operate m the evening session until the conviction grew that a day division of the school should be established on the campus thus m september 1927 the school i of business administration function ing as a senior college opened its doors to all students having two years credit m general college work a few of us dimly recollect the friendly ivy colored walls of east hall within whose portals the twelve staunch pioneers the enrolled stu dents for the first year first met this group was composed of two women and ten men three of them receiving the degree of bachelor of science m business administration the following june but this group was not to be dis couraged and m september 1928 again opened their doors this time m hayes hall to 94 students 80 men and 14 women this year a new four-year program was begun admit ting all high school students having minimum requirements it may be of interest to note the favorable accep tance of the plan since 68 of the enrolled group were freshmen re cently graduated from the city high schools during the year the famous quality point requirements for grad uation were put into practice to stimulate students to maintain a high level of scholarship at midyears some of you will recall dr oliver c lockhart head of
